It's been a long time since I've posted, and I have a lot to say. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of time to post right now. I guess I'll make a list:

First off, let me express how sorry I am for not updating this mod sooner. I've just been swamped down with school and life.

That being said, this mod will be updating in the very new future. Don't ask for new mobs, though, because you won't get any. (Yet.) More info on that to come later today.

Thanks to everyone who has been keeping this thread alive while I've been gone, I really appreciate it!

That's just about everything. But, I do want to say one very special thanks to Jennifer Larson from Minnesota. She's the reason I even visited this forum again. So you all should thank her too. Her very small donation encouraged me to continue this mod, even though I'm really busy with the rest of my life. So thanks, Jennifer.

Anyway, look for another post from me later today and we'll go from there!

Guys, my bad. I totally said I was going to update, and never did. With all the changes and updates to MC coming so fast I just decided to wait until a stable release came.

omg update please , its bin a while, and no updates, what is going on?

someone should update this really its a cool mod

While I appreciate that you find my mod really cool, I can't help but wonder if you realize that you come across as a self-righteous jerk who thinks that they deserve quick mod updates with no thought to how much work it actually requires for me to update. Sorry, but it's posts like that that make modders not want to continue their work.

That's bizarre. It works fine for me, generating where everything else does.. I guess my only suggestion would to be to try a clean install of a server and see what that does.. I honestly don't know what the issue is.

Not a big problem but could you make the config file be created in the server folder? Because right now the config files for the server are on my desktop and with my desktop every bit of space is needed :tongue.gif: Like I said not a big problem just a minor annoyance.

It is created in a folder called "config" inside the server folder. Are you running your server from your desktop? Are you sure the file on your desktop is the file that the server is actually using?

They only bad ones are the Obsidian Spiders and TNT Creepers. Give it some time and you'll probably never need to hit diamond to have a nether portal. Even so, they seem to be a bit rarer than the other hostile treasure mobs, at least for me. TNT creepers on the other hand.. The other two don't drop too excessively rare stuff to be OP, so them being fairly common is okay. If I recall correctly, it used to be the other way around (passive was more common than hostile) and that was kind of a problem. Thankfully, even though gold pigs are still common, they don't always drop their loot and don't seem to drop up to 8 anymore (or do they). Redstone Cows are the second most common, but don't seem to drop 10 or 15 anymore.

Oh, and you still didn't answer the other question. Are diamond lambs meant to be sheered? I thought you couldn't sheer baby regular sheep. Maybe, I'm just thinking you shouldn't get anything because you can't get anything from other baby animals.

Edit: I just looked through the version history. Never mind that first question I asked earlier. I just removed it.

You can't do anything to a Treasure Mob that you can't do to a normal mob. So, if you can't shear baby sheep, you can't shear baby Diamond Sheep. (Or, at least you shouldn't be able to.. )

When thinking about Magma Cubes and how they give you nothing, I thought of a new treasure mob last night. Fire slime/ cubes. No, not the other name. I mean, Slimes that are firey colored and drop fire (for chainmail, burning stuff, and setting off TNT). Sure, this would be pretty griefer friendly, but if there's no fire spread, that shouldn't be a problem. Maybe, they could be turned off. It's not like it would be the first mob to drop straight fire. (i.e. Fire Ogres)

Also, is it just me or do enemy treasure mobs appear more often? Aside from the nether ones, I keep running into packs of Mossy Cobble Zombies, Glass Skeletons, and TNT Creepers, with the occasional Obsidian Spider duo or trio thrown in, from time to time. (though they do keep somewhat rarer than the other three) Anyhow, as of today, I've only found three (kind of four) diamond sheep. Speaking of which, were you supposed to be able to shear baby diamond sheep? (I did and got two diamonds.) It took me a long to find the pair though, like several Minecraft days after I found my first one since 1.7. Gold pigs seem as common as they once were, but don't always drop gold, nor drop up to 8 anymore. Redstone cows appear to be rarer. Iron chickens don't seem any more common or vice versa. (still a bit too rare imo)

Remember, you can adjust the spawn rates in the config file that Treasure Mobs generates.

I found that the file is not in the config folder at the same level of the server but the folder level above. That's why I couldn't find it before since it isn't in the same place as the modloadermp config stuff like it is on the client side. I thought it was working but then after a while I got that BSOD again and once it happens I can't join again. I'm trying to figure out where I should look to troubleshoot. The server seems to keep running, so I'm not sure if it is a server side problem or client side. I really wish there were some type of error report that I could look at to work with. I do have a question about the control files, they start off with the General Instructions paragraph and then have the rates and ID's. Every time it is run the General Instructions paragraph is copied again below the ID's. Is there a purpose for that? I guess for now I will try to start from scratch again. I should only need to start from scratch with the .jar files right? Or is there anything else I may need to replace? (I start a new map each time)

No, the general instructions paragraph shouldn't be copying itself over and over, so that is a bug. It shouldn't effect the performance of the mod. You should only need to start with scratch with the jarfiles, that's correct. I honestly don't know what your issue is, and I don't know whether it is client side or server side.

If you can't get it to work starting fresh, then let me know and I'll PM you the IP of my personal server which runs Treasure Mobs just fine and we'll see if it's a client error or a server error.

No, it shouldn't matter where the server is run from. The treasuremobs_server.control file will be generated in the config folder of wherever the server is run from. Not in the .minecraft/config folder.

It just gives BSOD, no error report. And minecraft doesn't close, I have to close it. I did try a clean version of everything to my knowledge. I will probably try again tomorrow. There is supposed to be a config file for the server side treasuremobs_server.control but it doesn't show up in the minecraft config folder when I run it. Does it matter where the server jar is run from?

No, it shouldn't matter where the server is run from. The treasuremobs_server.control file will be generated in the config folder of wherever the server is run from. Not in the .minecraft/config folder.

I have it turned to false and I can play for a few minutes but then it randomly pops up that dirt screen which then turns to black after a few seconds. All I was able to do was craft some tools and never got to see any mobs before it crashed. Once it has this problem trying to log back in immediately goes to the dirt screen. One other interesting think is that I tried this separately with the elemental creepers mod (by itself, not with this mod or any others). I end up with the same problem. It works for a few minutes and then has that brown screen. Maybe it's something with modloadermp then?

That's a possibility, especially since it works on my server just fine. Does it give you any error report or just BSOD and then crash? Have you tried getting a clean version of everything and then reinstalling all the mods?
